    I have literally no idea why I signed up for this in September; it's my daughter's birthday and I buy presents in dribs and drabs.
    I think I'm going to end up standing in the corner with a dunce's cap on until October :rotfl:
    I'm such a twerp!

    sure you wont be spending everyday though!!


    I've managed NSD number 2 :)

    Matron kerri, if several pupils turn up at sick bay tomorrow, Head Teacher marmite ordered in some catering packs of Gaviscon, Immodium and Syrup of Figs before she went on leave, Igor put them.in stores, didn't you, Igor? No? You put them WHERE????? In today's spotted !!!!!! and custard????

    Oh my gawd! The Head is not going to like this....

    Right, well after the 'incident' with the syrup of figs, the first floor toilets are out of order, I'm sorry, you'll all have to use the ones in the annex across the yard. Igor has also become the first contestant banned by Mary and Paul from ever entering the Bake Off tent again :eek:
    NSD 3 for me today

    Thanks for all the lovely comments - certainly feels good to have paid that one off - one more to go and all done!

    Sorry fedup amongst dealing with all of the above I totally missed that, well done :T and a :money: gold star for you!

    Well off the starting blocks today with nsd #1 but going to have to try harder to reach my target this month.

    Oh crap no! But with the swimming and the groceries and the extra spends for birthday presents, I'm not sure I'll make my NSD goal ;) I'll keep going and see what happens, but I'm very doubtful!
    (And I do tend to buy presents in dribs and drabs online so it can take quite a few days..)

  • Think I might get detention. Thank goodness the monkeys go back to school tomorrow, I might actually stop spending. Stupidly expensive day out in London today as end of hols treat, and I'm not even sure it was worth it!

    NSDs start tomorrow!

    We have a new student, applejack 07 - welcome to Ennessdee Towers Comprehensive Academy College! Head Teacher marmitewill interview you when she returns in a few days from annual leave, and you will be added to the school roll. Hubert, show applejack the way to the classroom. Applejack, follow the hairy donkey with the pink stilettos (don't ask, it's a long story, some of the older pupils will fill you in later)
    Carry on hunting those NSDs, I will finally be grabbing one tomorrow.
    One life - your life - live it!
  • Hi

    Probably beginners luck, I have 2 NSD so far. Very pleased with myself for saying no to to a chocolate bar while waiting for the bus home (monthly pass so no spend there) Perhaps this no spend thingy will be good for my weight as well.
